To "Noriyuki" Oneself

That is the term WHS uses to describe a person with a non-western name offering a simpler, westernized noun that others may use to identify him easier. The term is named after Oscar-nominated actor Noriyuki "Pat" Morita.

From today's Daily Record (Scotland) "New Bhoy Ki Sung-Yeung says: Just call me Dave":

"KI SUNG-YEUNG has told his new Celtic team-mates to call him David.

The South Korean playmaker swears he's found the perfect way to avoid confusion over saying his name."

Merry Xmas!

Hope everyone has a great Xmas.

BREAKING NEWS: Madoff May Have Been Assaulted in Prison

ABC News is reporting that Bernie Madoff was admitted to Duke University Hospital last Friday with broken bones in his face, fractured ribs and a collapsed lung, citing sources.

The Karate Kid, Part III: Misunderstood

"The Karate Kid, Part III" was roundly panned when it came out in 1989. Tell anyone that it's the best of the series and people will still sound like it's twenty years ago, criticizing the film from top-to-bottom. These people are idiots and that's why they're not WHS editors.

Imagine for a moment you haven't seen the movie and you only had KK3's
Wikipedia entry to go by. Perhaps you'd see why this film is part of the WHS Criterion Collection. Here are some excerpts from the write-up (contains spoilers):

"That evening at the bonsai store, Daniel and Jessica are confronted by Mike and Snake (Jonathan Avildsen), one of Silver's goons. They threaten to harm Daniel if he does not join the tournament. Daniel declines, and Mike, while promising to return, departs in a heated rage. Again at the bonsai store, Daniel and Jessica are again confronted by Mike and Snake, who are now joined by Mike's personal trainer Dennis (Christopher Paul Ford). Daniel once again refuses to enter the tournament. The three goons respond by destroying the shop. When Daniel attempts to prevent this damage, he and Jessica are attacked. Mike demonstrates his cruelty by kicking Jessica brutally in her stomach when she tries to protect herself. Miyagi shows up and fends off the three men. Miyagi and Daniel arrive home to find their stock of bonsai has been stolen, with a tournament application hanging in their place."

LMFAO

"Daniel returns to the shop with Miyagi’s damaged bonsai, which Miyagi immediately mends and restores. Miyagi, who has sold his truck in order to buy a new stock of trees, refuses to train Daniel for the tournament."

LMFAO SOME MORE

"Silver, who has befriended Daniel numerous times under the fraudulent guise of a humble friend of Kreese sent to apologize on behalf of their Korean master for Kreese's previous actions, offers to "train" Daniel at the Cobra Kai dojo."

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

"Criticisms

KK3 did considerably less business than the first two films, grossing only $39 million at the box-office.[1] It was dismissed by critics who considered the installment in the series as having jumped the shark[2][3][4][5].

Film critic Leonard Maltin gave KK3 a "BOMB" rating (the worst rating that a movie can possibly get in Maltin's eyes) and regarded KK3 as "an utterly stupid movie that was hopeless."

At the 1989 Golden Raspberry Awards, this entry received five nominations. They are for Worst Picture (Jerry Weintraub; lost to Star Trek V: The Final Frontier), Worst Screenplay (Robert Mark Kamen), Worst Director (John G. Avildsen), Worst Actor (Ralph Macchio), and Worst Supporting Actor (Pat Morita)."

"Fallen Blossoms" by Cai Guo-Qiang

Yesterday afternoon, I took a walk down to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, to see Cai Guo-Qiang's gunpowder explosion drawing, "Fallen Blossom," which took place at sunset. It was pretty impressive. In case you're unfamiliar with the artist, he's world renowned for his gunpowder drawings and firework displays. He had a retrospective at the Guggenheim New York last year and he was responsible for the fireworks at the opening ceremony for the Olympics in Beijing.

UNINTENTIONAL COMEDY ALERT: LEVEL ORANGE - "Precious"

The We Has Spoken Alert System:

RED (severe): guaranteed career-spoiling unintentional comedy, theater attendance is required on opening weekend
ORANGE (high): very likely career threat to a film legend (in this case new talent), damage may be very difficult to overcome, theater attendance is highly recommended
YELLOW (elevated): trailer may hint at career-jeopardizing lines and performances but may contain all the film actually has, dvd screening is acceptable

Jesus Taught Me Karate Dojo Beating Cold Case Closed

The Washington Post today has a great article explaining the truth behind the controversial "Jesus Taught Me Karate Dojo Beating" video that has gone viral.



The video, shot at the Dojo of a former marine named Bobby Joe Blythe, in the early 80's in Dumfries, Virginia, apparently shows the brutal murder of a mentally retarded man who claims Jesus taught him Karate. Blythe instructs one of his students to 'teach him a lesson' and boy do they ever.

But in an incredible series of events the video and its insane popularity led police in Hanford, California (where Blythe now resides) to suspect Blythe and the black belt of murder and open up a 'cold case!'



However the Post reports today that the man is not dead, but was simply beaten half to death as it were. A local Dumfries cop told the Post he saw the man in the days after the brutal beating.

"You could tell he had been beaten severely," Feldbush said. "He wasn't very cooperative and didn't want to pursue charges."

So the "cold case" is closed.

But it's still pretty sick that they beat this guy near death for fun in a Karate Dojo in Dumfries Virginia of all places. Watching too much Karate Kid, I suppose.

If anything this just proves that as long as the cameras are rolling you can never ever escape justice. Even nearly 30 years later. I'm sure everyone involved in this video never expected to see this type of reaction. Internet wins again.

UPDATE: It turns out Bobby Joe Blythe was the YouTube user who posted the video in the first place! When the response got too much for him to handle he deleted his YouTube account but it was too late. The video, and his comments had been posted all across the internet.

UPDATE II: International news has caught on. France 24 reports that in a "first for the internet" hackers discovered the identities and personal information (addresses, phone numbers, rap-sheets) of all the parties involved in this video (including the black belt student, Willie Dennis) tipped off local, state and federal authorities, and posted this information on message boards across the internet.

The guilty parties scrambled to delete their Facebook and Myspace pages only to have the archived pages posted as jpeg versions.

On Fire Retrospective: George W. Bush

The death of Ted Kennedy has brought Kennedy's biographer Adam Clymer into the news again, which reminded me of the first incident that signaled George W. Bush's On Fire potential. September 5, 2000:

The Republican presidential candidate George W Bush has said he regrets the fact that people heard him make an insulting comment about a journalist, but he refused to apologise.

Just before a campaign speech in Illinois, Mr Bush said to his running mate Dick Cheney: "There's Adam Clymer, major league asshole from the New York Times."

Mr Bush later said he did not realise that live microphones were going to pick up the remark, but he stopped short of an actual apology.

Time to step up Barack Obama. Time to step up.

WHS Editors, follow my lead:

IDEA: International Dialects of English Archive

The Maryland House, a service area "destination" 24 miles north of Baltimore on I-95, is a rite of passage for anyone from the mid-Atlantic United States. Those from this region have an unhealthy relationship with this rest stop, interrupting their travels for far too much time here for no reason. However, it's also a strange crossroads of the nation, where one may see natives of states mostly from Virginia to New York. It is here where I encountered a most intriguing accent on a woman.

She had a twang of a Southerner with the briskness of someone from the North. In my non-linguist estimation, the Maryland House is the pivot point for some of the country's heaviest accents.

Check out IDEA's website (link below). You can hear a variety of Americans speaking; the site is broken up into numerous intrastate dialects.

Best movie review I have ever read (Tansformers)

"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" is a horrible experience of unbearable length, briefly punctuated by three or four amusing moments. One of these involves a dog-like robot humping the leg of the heroine. Such are the meager joys. If you want to save yourself the ticket price, go into the kitchen, cue up a male choir singing the music of hell, and get a kid to start banging pots and pans together. Then close your eyes and use your imagination.

"Allahhoakbar" + BOOOM!

National Geographic Channel's new 2 hour special "Iran and the West" is highly recommended viewing and contains one of the best examples of "Allahoakbar+BOOOM" I have ever seen.

For those who don't know (and haven't seen Piston Honda's world-renowned impersonation of "Allahoakbar+BOOOM!") it is the official Muslim terrorist act of screaming the words "Allahoakbar" before detonating a bomb, launching a missile into the air, firing an automatic weapon at a crowd and/or any other type of loud violent destruction in the name of Allah. However it must always be REALLY LOUD, for example screaming Allahoakbar before stabbing a crowd of people or poisoning someone's food or something just is not effective enough.

"Iran and the West" airs next on Monday, June 29th at 5PM.

Please note, unfortunately said clip is not in the following trailer below but I posted the trailer anyways cause there's some cool training footage which we all know Allan loves.

Orville Redenbacher's: What Six Flags Should've Done

Orville Redenbacher's popcorn brand aired a commercial a few years ago featuring a digitally re-created Orville Redenbacher. Apparently, the company felt that having him rise from the dead as a pasty, wiry, vacant, stool-colored moving image was going to sell some popcorn. I don't know what the sales figures were as a result of this campaign, but I do know that what I saw was extremely distressing. If the company had used Redenbacher's decade-old corpse it would've been less hair-raising. I haven't seen computerized Orville in a while so it's feasible many others felt as violated as I did and perhaps even went as far as to file lawsuits.

Six Flags should've followed a similar course and pulled its scary old man from the airwaves. Now look at the company. It's in bankruptcy after being buried by over $2 billion in debt. Respect old people and cast real old people in your commercials, folks.

Two and a Half Flags (aka "More Debt, Less Flags")

Six Flags declared bankruptcy. The parks will remain open but will hereby be called "Two and a Half Flags."

Could this have something to do with the racist Asian stereotype spokesman that tarnished their national image? See previous WHS post.

I noticed last month, ads for Six Flags included a new (old) spokesperson - the previously featured 'creepy geriatric burn victim'

"New posters have been produced by the Workers' Party of Korea Publishing House, the Mansudae Art Studio, the Korean Central Fine Arts Studio and the Fine Arts Studio of the Ministry of Railways to encourage the Korean people in the immediate farming campaign.

Posters "Let All Turn out in Weeding Campaign!" and "Let Us Sincerely Help Farmers with Manpower and Materially through Patriotic Devotion!" depict an agricultural worker all out in the weeding campaign in the wake of the completion of the rice transplantation and the working people rushing to co-op fields, thus making an ideological and artistic representation of the elated enthusiasm of the Korean people to hit the target of grain production this year without fail."

The Calamari Wrestler

From the same director of Executive Koala. This is the touching story of a wrestling giant squid.

Executive Koala

"Tamura is an average divorced salaryman in Japan - and also a man-sized, suit-and-tie wearing, upright-walking koala bear. Though not a human being, he's a successful businessman with ventures overseas who refuses to play office politics. He hopes to marry his girlfriend, Yoko, and raise a child. His visions are of an ordinary life with an ordinary company until his ordinary retirement. But when his girlfriend turns up dead one morning, the police finger the Executive Koala as their prime suspect. Temura runs from Detective Ono and fights to prove his innocence. Tamura wants to know why there are gaps in his memory. Is he a murderer? Does he have multiple personalities? And what does his bartender (the frog) and his boss (the rabbit) know about the two-hundred year old terrifying secret behind the EXECUTIVE KOALA?"

Danger Mouse / Sparklehorse / David Lynch Collaboration

A new album by Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse featuring 100 pages of original photographs and artwork from David Lynch and vocals by a variety of artists including Iggy Pop, Frank Black and The Flaming Lips has been indefinitely shelved by label EMI for unspecified legal reasons (too many high profile stars, maybe??). However the album can be heard streamed on NPR's website now.

It makes no sense why NPR is able to stream the album for free but yet EMI cant release it officially. A spokesperson for Danger Mouse has said the album will be released with the book of photographs and a blank CD-R inside.

I'm not sure if this is one big publicity stunt or what but whatever who cares if you want to listen to it go HERE.

The Frank Black song "Angels' Harp" is really good btw.

The David Lynch songs are AMAZING.

85?

This is the dumbest sports story I have ever read:

The NFL had agreed to let the player formerly known as Chad Johnson wear his new name on the back of his jersey this season. There’s one catch for the receiver: It’s not exactly how he wanted it.

Instead of Ocho Cinco, he’ll be Ochocinco.

The receiver legally changed his name in Florida last August. He asked the league and the media to call him Chad Ocho Cinco, a two-word nickname he had adopted referring to his No. 85.

The Bengals complied, but the NFL balked. It said the receiver would have to pay for the large inventory of “Johnson” jerseys that Reebok stocked for the season—ones that would be a tough sell—before he could switch. The receiver declined, choosing to play the season under his old name.

The league has agreed to let him wear his new name this year, but it will be rendered as “Ochocinco” because that’s how he wrote it when he submitted his name-change form in Florida.

“It’s his legal name,” AFC information manager Corry Rush said Thursday.

The receiver said last year that he wanted his name to be “Ocho Cinco.” Neither he nor his agent returned phone messages Thursday to discuss the name being one word instead of two. He was still selling shirts and other gear under the “Ocho Cinco” name on his Web site.
